Surgeon Testimonial

Andrew Averbach
Dr. Averbach is straightforward, warm and highly intelligent. He wanted to know, that as a patient, you had educated yourself about the surgery, and was comfortable with the information you had received about the surgery. He was very thorough. rnrnDr. Averbach illustrated the next steps that would have to be taken and I moved forward. He was there by my side through the entire process. I've lost 125 pounds and will be forever grateful to Dr. Averbach.rnrnHe gave me HOPE.rnrnI would definitely recommend him to anyone.

Get Your Head Back Into The Game
on December 15, 2011 8:43 pm
YOU ARE NOT A FAILURE!
Failure starts in the mind – if your head’s not in the game, your body won’t be either.  Some where along the way you have stepped off track and are now looking for a way back.  You may have been very successful with your initial weight loss, but it has began to creep back up on the scale.  You are DESPARATE for an answer.  STOP!

I have created a group (Back 2 Basics) to help you will learn how to get back on track and receive the support and guidance by someone who has been there and back.  Before my surgery I was 298 pounds.  I lost a total of 140 pounds, but slowly began to regain 45.  I found myself in a panicked state and that only made it worse.  As I began to return to the basics (I'm not talking about the eating plan), but the basics as in honesty, planning and action, I began to release the pounds again.

Remember that your tool still works.  The three biggest issues when it comes to getting fit are a lack of commitment, a lack of planning and a tendency to make excuses.  I will help you remove these limiting beliefs and push toward your desired goal. 

Lastly, There is no try. There is only do or not do. Let's just do it! Today! Without real commitment, there can be no real change.
